An hours long search Wednesday for a woman who disappeared after a two-vehicle crash on Gregory Lake Road in North Augusta produced no results.

The North Augusta Department of Public Safety says multiple law enforcement agencies, a canine unit and drones combed the area near the accident scene at the entrance to Gregory Landing subdivision until around 10:00 pm.

Authorities say 66-year-old Susan Rhodes, who was driving one of the vehicles involved in the accident just before 2:00 pm, was reportedly disoriented and may have been suffering from a medical issue when she wandered into a wooded area nearby.

The search for Rhodes resumed around 7:30 this morning. Multiple agencies are participating in the search again.
